That Anthony Albanese address to the nation felt extremely unnecessary. I was expecting something far more serious than bland platitudes of ‘Aussie-ness’ and ‘hey, we’ve cut the excise and maybe try taking the train’. What a waste of everyone’s time.

@makoshark35 100%. If we don't win 2 out of the next 3, then the last few weeks are for nothing.

Happy, frustrated, stoked, annoyed..mixed emotions, but ultimately positive...one niggling thought though, I feel the last few weeks will be for nothing if we don't win next week.....thoughts???

If I know how to read - debatable - I can see eight changes from North's last game of 2024 to the first game of 2025.
In: Comben, Daniel, Darling, Konstanty, Logue, O'Sullivan, Parker, Sheezel
Out: Dawson (Kallan), Drury, Fisher, Pink, Shiels, Stephens, Teakle, Wardlaw

@atrupar @airbagmoments You are the problem with western governments. You highlight the absurdity of the far right but you are blind to the systemic problems that every neo capitalist society suffers through; profit over people. You give excuses to the rich and powerful that give lip service
English
@airbagmoments are you serious? Because if you are, that's pretty fucked up. Dude was not a mass murderer. Criticize his company all you want -- I agree our health care system is a mess -- but him being gunned down is not justifiable.

absolutely depraved to get your dunks in when the guy was just murdered in cold blood

Been pretty all over the shop lately with some personal stuff but have just updated the spreadsheet (link is pinned)
Nov 28: -2.5u
Nov 30: +6.89u
Dec 1: -1.2u
Dec 2: +6.19u
+9.38u over the last few days takes the season to +51.42u @ 17.6% ROI
Cracking the 50u mark this early in the season at this ROI is something to celebrate, so going to give away a free month to a couple people who interact with this tweet (1 entry per like, comment, repost)

Most of Darling's value will come from the intangibles and teaching other forwards (Larkey) the craft.
(And the discussion about North's list needing someone like a Darling after the last few years is a whole different topic.)
English
North getting Darling makes a lot of sense. Experienced stop gap to soak up minutes, set standards, and allow younger keys to develop at their own pace.
Less pressure on Comben (assuming forward), others don't get rushed, not like Darling breaks the bank with $$ or picks.

EXCLUSIVE: The AFL world is rallying to help former Essendon star Jason Winderlich in the fight of his life. The 39-year-old broke his neck in a local game and now faces an agonising road to recovery. 7NEWS.com.au @jordy_wright #7NEWS

@superfooty @Robbo_heraldsun Yes. Every other time a gold is kicked without americanised bullshit

The Lions were 2-5 and sick and since then have gone nine wins, a loss and a draw, and that record includes seven straight wins. At Round 14, they were 13th. They are now third with a bullet.

A Trump rally... USA is standing up. What will it take for Aussies to get patriotic ❓️

@DaveMilbo And this is why I hope they are taught a lesson at the next election. Minority government is the only way forward

He is. They are all smarter than that. They just think we're not.

Ok. So can someone explain that free kick to Chuck Curnow?

Australians continue to get poorer
Latest National Accounts released today show the Albanese GPD per capita Recession deepens further, going backwards 0.4% for the March quarter - and backwards 1.3% for year to date.
What will it take to wake up to destructive insanity of Net Zero ?
English
@DaveMilbo Out of curiosity; do you think the only way for proper progressive policies to succeed is to have more independents and teals in government?
English
Wilkie felt he could vote on the motion to recognise Palestine. He didn't need to follow convention and wait until Monday in the face of such slaughter. Why was he able to do so? And get real: name a set of circumstances where the ALP would have voted differently. Seriously.
English
Fascinating and overwhelming qualitative sentiment in this thread. There are warning signs for the ALP. I hope the party hacks splitting hairs about standing orders in the face of infanticide take note.
David Milner@DaveMilbo
I hear this sentiment from older people all the time. It will eventually disappear. I'm turning 40 this year and I've not in my lifetime witnessed this mythical moral and brave Labor party worthy of undying support. It doesn't exist anymore, if it ever did.

@ByMarcMcGowan @kangarooted What do you expect clarko to say? "yes the list is shit and the senior players are terrible"?
He can't make fruid salad from pig shit
English
@kangarooted Why are you apologising to me? North absolutely need to start showing some improvement. It’s a nonsense quote from Clarko that means nothing
English
“If North Melbourne do improve, which we hope to do, there’ll be someone else on the bottom of the ladder in two or three years’ time and the blowtorch will be on them.”
Troy Makepeace #880@makoshark35
"stay the course" "we know where we are at" "we just need to be better for longer" It's the same every week and nothing changes. No emotion, no fight, no anger. Denis Pagan said to me early, "nice guys finish last son!" get F'n angry!! What do you stand for?. I'll stay the course
English
@RabbyHendry @ByMarcMcGowan Correct but you lose. McKay, cunnington, ziebell, Goldstein, turner etc. And they lose more structure. Not that they are great players but they can play a system better than kids
English
@N29791 @ByMarcMcGowan They are worse than anyone expected. Haven’t improved at all on last year
